It provides the step-by-step process to calculate variance which includes finding the mean, deviations from the mean, squaring the deviations, summing the squares, and dividing by the number of data points. Standard deviation is defined as the square root of the variance and measures how spread out numbers are from the mean. Examples are provided to demonstrate calculating variance and standard deviation.

The document discusses variability and measures of variability. It defines variability as a quantitative measure of how spread out or clustered scores are in a distribution. The standard deviation is introduced as the most commonly used measure of variability, as it takes into account all scores in the distribution and provides the average distance of scores from the mean. Properties of the standard deviation are examined, such as how it does not change when a constant is added to all scores but does change when all scores are multiplied by a constant.
The range is the simplest measure of variability, defined as the difference between the highest and lowest values in a data set. It is quick to calculate but does not provide a full picture of the data distribution and can be strongly influenced by outliers. Other measures of variability include the average deviation, which calculates the average amount each score deviates from the mean, and the interquartile range, which is less influenced by outliers than the range. The interquartile range only considers data between the first and third quartiles and ignores half the data points.
The document discusses various measures of central tendency and dispersion used in statistical analysis. It defines measures of central tendency like arithmetic mean, median and mode, and provides their formulas and properties. It also discusses measures of dispersion such as range, mean deviation, standard deviation, variance and their characteristics. The document provides examples and steps to calculate various averages and measures of dispersion for a given data set.

It is calculated by taking the difference of each value from the mean, squaring the differences, summing them, and dividing by the number of values minus one, then taking the square root. The higher the standard deviation, the more varied the data.

This document discusses standard deviation (SD), which is a measure of dispersion used commonly in statistical analysis. It describes how to calculate SD by finding the mean, deviations from the mean, sum of squared deviations, and variance. For large samples, the square root of the variance gives the SD. SD summarizes how much values vary from the mean, helps determine if differences are due to chance, and indicates appropriate sample sizes. For a normal distribution, about 68% of values fall within 1 SD of the mean, 95% within 2 SD, and 99.7% within 3 SD.
The document outlines a lesson plan for a teaching demo aimed at improving 13 to 15 year old students' writing skills based on their interests and daily lives.

Students are then given a worksheet to write sentences using different sports verbs like "do", "play", and "go". The lesson concludes with a thank you from the instructors.
Standard deviation is a measure of how dispersed data points are from the average value. It is calculated by taking the square root of the variance, which is the average of the squared distances from the mean. For a set of egg weights, the standard deviation is calculated by first finding the mean, then determining the variance by taking the sum of the squared differences from the mean. A low standard deviation means values are close to the mean, while a high standard deviation means values are more spread out. Standard deviation is not affected by adding or subtracting a constant from all values, but is affected by multiplying or dividing all values by a constant.
Skewness is a measure of the asymmetry of a distribution. A perfectly symmetrical distribution has the mean, median and mode equal, while an asymmetrical distribution has these values depart from each other. The greater the skewness, the greater the distance between the mean and mode, with the mean moving furthest from the mode due to its sensitivity to outliers. Positive skewness occurs when the mean is greater than the mode, indicating a distribution skewed to the right, while negative skewness occurs when the mean is less than the mode, indicating a left skew.
The document discusses different methods to calculate arithmetic mean from various types of data series.
It explains the direct and shortcut methods to find the arithmetic mean for individual, discrete and continuous data series.
For individual series, the direct method sums all data points and divides by the total number of data points. The shortcut method assumes a mean, calculates the differences from the assumed mean, and finds the mean as the assumed mean plus the sum of the differences divided by the total number of data points.
This document discusses variance and standard deviation. It defines variance as a measure of how data points differ from the mean. It explains that variance can show how two data sets that have the same mean and median can still be different. The document then provides formulas and examples for calculating variance and standard deviation. It states that standard deviation is a measure of variation from the mean and that a higher standard deviation indicates more spread and less consistency in the data.

There are five types of methods for solving first order non-linear partial differential equations:
I) Equations containing only p and q variables. II) Equations relating z as a function of u. III) Equations that can be separated into functions of single variables. IV) Clairaut's Form where the solution is directly substituted. V) Charpit's Method which is a general method taking integrals of auxiliary equations to solve dz=pdx+qdy and find the solution. These types cover a range of applications including Poisson's, Helmholtz's, and Schrรถdinger's equations in fields like electrostatics, elasticity, wave theory and quantum mechanics.
This document discusses different types of graphs used to represent frequency distributions: histograms, frequency polygons, and ogives. It provides examples and instructions for constructing each graph type. Histograms use vertical bars to represent frequencies, frequency polygons connect points plotted for class midpoints, and ogives show cumulative frequencies. The document also discusses relative frequency graphs and common distribution shapes like bell-shaped, uniform, and skewed. It assigns practice constructing different graph types from example data.
The document discusses Spearman's rank correlation coefficient, a nonparametric measure of statistical dependence between two variables. It assumes values between -1 and 1, with -1 indicating a perfect negative correlation and 1 a perfect positive correlation. The steps involve converting values to ranks, calculating the differences between ranks, and determining if there is a statistically significant correlation based on the test statistic and critical values. An example calculates Spearman's rho using rankings of cricket teams in test and one day international matches.
Correlation analysis measures the relationship between two or more variables. The sample correlation coefficient r ranges from -1 to 1, indicating the degree of linear relationship between variables. A value of 0 indicates no linear relationship, while values closer to 1 or -1 indicate a strong positive or negative linear relationship. Excel can be used to calculate r using the CORREL function.
The document discusses partial differential equations (PDEs). It defines PDEs and gives their general form involving independent variables, dependent variables, and partial derivatives. It describes methods for obtaining the complete integral, particular solution, singular solution, and general solution of a PDE. It provides examples of types of PDEs and how to solve them by assuming certain forms for the dependent and independent variables and their partial derivatives.

The course covers descriptive statistics, data exploration, probability distributions, simple and multiple linear regression analysis, logistic regression analysis, and model building for credit risk analysis. Notes are provided on correlation calculation and its properties. Assumptions and interpretations of linear regression are also summarized. The document is intended as a high-level overview of topics covered in the course rather than an in-depth treatment.
The document discusses the Pearson Product Moment Correlation Coefficient (r), which is a measure of the linear relationship between two variables. It was developed by Karl Pearson in the late 19th century. The r value ranges from -1 to 1, where -1 is a perfect negative linear relationship, 0 is no linear relationship, and 1 is a perfect positive linear relationship. Values above 0.8 or 0.9 are considered strong correlations, while values around 0.2 or 0.3 are weak correlations. The document provides examples of linear relationships at different r values and the formula to calculate r from sample data.
This document discusses measures of dispersion, specifically standard deviation and quartile deviation. It defines standard deviation as a measure of how closely values are clustered around the mean. Standard deviation is calculated by taking the square root of the average of the squared deviations from the mean. Quartile deviation is defined as half the difference between the third quartile (Q3) and first quartile (Q1), which divide a data set into four equal parts. The document provides examples of calculating standard deviation and quartile deviation for both individual and grouped data sets. It also discusses the merits, demerits, and uses of these statistical measures.
This document discusses measures of variability used in statistics. It defines variability as the spread or dispersion of scores. The key measures of variability discussed are the range, variance, and standard deviation. The range is the difference between the highest and lowest scores. The variance is the average of the squared deviations from the mean and represents how far the scores deviate from the mean. The standard deviation is the square root of the variance and represents how much scores typically deviate from the mean. Larger standard deviations indicate greater variability in the scores.

It then covers measuring dispersion through tools like range, variance and standard deviation. The document reviews the processes and asks if quality is achieved or not.
This document defines key statistical concepts including mean, median, mode, and standard deviation. It explains how to calculate the mean by summing all values and dividing by the total number of values. The median is the middle value in a data set. The mode is the most frequently occurring value. Standard deviation is calculated by finding the mean, deviations from the mean, squaring the deviations, taking the average of the squared deviations (variance), and then calculating the square root of the variance. An example calculation of standard deviation for the data set {1,4,5,6,9} is provided. The document also lists 10 problems for further practice.

Overview of variance and Standard deviation.pptxCHIRANTANMONDAL2
ย
This document provides an overview of variance and standard deviation. It defines variance as the average squared deviation from the mean of a data set, and is used to calculate standard deviation. Standard deviation measures how dispersed the data is from the mean - the higher the standard deviation, the more spread out the data. It gives the formulas for calculating variance using summation notation, and standard deviation as the square root of variance. An example is shown finding the variance and standard deviation of 5 test scores.
The document discusses analyzing and interpreting data. It begins by debunking common myths about data analysis. It then uses the analogy of blind men feeling different parts of an elephant to illustrate how perceptions can be limited without seeing the whole picture. The document provides guidance on developing an analysis plan early, collecting and cleaning data, and then analyzing, interpreting, and reflecting on what was learned from the analysis and its limitations. It discusses both qualitative and quantitative analysis and various descriptive statistics that can be used to summarize data.
Diff rel gof-fit - jejit - practice (5)Ken Plummer
ย
The document discusses the differences between questions of difference, relationship, and goodness of fit. It provides examples to illustrate each type of question. A question of difference compares two or more groups on some outcome, like comparing younger and older drivers' average driving speeds. A question of relationship examines whether a change in one variable causes a change in another, such as the relationship between age and flexibility. A question of goodness of fit assesses how well a claim matches reality, such as whether a salesman's claim of software effectiveness fits the results of user testing.
This document provides examples of questions that ask for the lowest and highest number in a set of data. The questions ask for the difference between the state with the lowest and highest church attendance, the students with the highest and lowest test scores, and the slowest and fastest versions of a vehicle model.
Inferential vs descriptive tutorial of when to use - Copyright UpdatedKen Plummer
ย
The document discusses the differences between descriptive and inferential statistics. Descriptive statistics are used to describe characteristics of a whole population, while inferential statistics are used when the whole population cannot be measured and conclusions are drawn from a sample to generalize to the larger population. Examples are provided to illustrate when each type of statistic would be used. Key differences include descriptive statistics examining entire populations while inferential statistics examine samples that aim to infer conclusions about populations.

The document provides explanations and examples for different types of statistical questions:
- Difference questions compare two or more groups on an outcome.
- Relationship questions examine if a change in one variable is associated with a change in another variable.
- Independence questions determine if two variables with multiple levels are independent of each other.
- Goodness of fit questions assess how well a claim matches reality.
Examples are given for each type of question to illustrate key concepts like comparing groups, examining associations between variables, assessing independence, and evaluating how a claim fits observed data.
Normal or skewed distributions (inferential) - Copyright updatedKen Plummer
ย
- The document discusses determining whether distributions are normal or skewed
- A distribution is considered skewed if the skewness value divided by the standard error of skewness is less than -2 or greater than 2
- For the old car data set in the example, the skewness value of -4.26 divided by the standard error is less than -2, so this distribution is negatively skewed
- The new car data set skewness value of -1.69 divided by the standard error is between -2 and 2, so this distribution is normal
Normal or skewed distributions (descriptive both2) - Copyright updatedKen Plummer
ย
The document discusses normal and skewed distributions and how to identify them. It provides examples of measuring forearm circumference of golf players and IQs of cats and dogs. The forearm circumference data is normally distributed while the dog IQ data is left skewed based on the skewness statistics provided. Therefore, at least one of the distributions (dog IQs) is skewed.
Nature of the data practice - Copyright updatedKen Plummer
ย
The document discusses different types of data:
- Scaled data provides exact amounts like 12.5 feet or 140 miles per hour.
- Ordinal or ranked data provides comparative amounts like 1st, 2nd, 3rd place.
- Nominal data names or categorizes values like Republican or Democrat.
- Nominal proportional data are simply percentages like Republican 45% or Democrat 55%.
Nature of the data (spread) - Copyright updatedKen Plummer
ย
The document discusses scaled and ordinal data. Scaled data can be measured in exact amounts like distances and speeds. Ordinal data provides comparative amounts by ranking items, like the top 3 states in terms of well-being. Examples ask the reader to identify if data is scaled or ordinal, like driving speeds which are scaled, or baby weight percentiles which are ordinal as they compare weights.
The document is a series of questions and examples that explain what it means for a question to ask about the "most frequent response". It provides examples of questions asking about the highest/most number of something based on data in tables or lists. It then asks a series of questions to determine if they are asking about the most frequent/common response based on the data given.
Nature of the data (descriptive) - Copyright updatedKen Plummer
ย
The document discusses two types of data: scaled data and ordinal data. Scaled data can be measured in exact amounts with equal intervals between values. Ordinal or ranked data provides comparative amounts but not necessarily equal intervals. Several examples are provided to illustrate the difference, including driving speed, states ranked by well-being, and elephant weights. Practice questions are also included for the reader to determine if data examples provided are scaled or ordinal.
The document discusses whether variables are dichotomous or scaled when calculating correlations. It provides examples of correlations between ACT scores and whether students attended private or public school. One example has ACT scores as a scaled variable and school type as dichotomous. Another has lower and higher ACT scores as dichotomous and school type as dichotomous. It emphasizes determining if variables are both dichotomous, or if one is dichotomous and one is scaled.
The document discusses the correlation between ACT scores and a measure of school belongingness. It determines that one of the variables, which has a sample size less than 30, is skewed and has many ties. As a result, a non-parametric test should be used to analyze the relationship between the two variables.
The document discusses using parametric versus non-parametric tests based on sample size for skewed distributions. For skewed distributions with a sample size less than 30, a non-parametric test is recommended. For skewed distributions with a sample size greater than or equal to 30, a parametric test is recommended. It provides examples analyzing the correlation between ACT scores and sense of school belongingness using both approaches.
The document discusses whether there are many ties or few/no ties within the variables of the relationship question "What is the correlation between ACT rankings (ordinal) and sense of school belongingness (scaled 1-10)?". It determines that ACT rankings, being ordinal, have many ties, while sense of school belongingness, being on a scale of 1-10, may have many or few ties depending on how scores are distributed.
The document discusses identifying whether variables in statistical analyses are ordinal or nominal. It provides examples of relationships between variables such as ACT rankings and sense of school belongingness, daily social media use and sense of well-being, and private/public school enrollment and sense of well-being. It asks the reader to identify if variables in examples like running speed and shoe/foot size or LSAT scores and test anxiety are ordinal or nominal.
The document discusses covariates and their impact on relationships between variables. It defines a covariate as a variable that is controlled for or eliminated from a study. It explains that if a covariate is related to one of the variables in the relationship being examined, it can impact the strength of that relationship. Examples are provided to demonstrate when a question involves a covariate or not.
This document discusses the nature of variables in relationship questions. It can be determined that the variables are either both scaled, at least one is ordinal, or at least one is nominal. Examples of different relationship questions are provided that fall into each of these categories. The document also provides practice questions for the user to determine which category the variables fall into.
The document discusses the number of variables involved in research questions. It explains that many relationship questions deal with two variables, such as gender predicting driving speed. However, some questions deal with three or more variables, for example gender and age predicting driving speed. The document asks the reader to identify whether example research questions involve two or three or more variables.
The document discusses independent and dependent variables in research questions. It provides examples to illustrate that an independent variable has at least two levels and may have more, such as religious affiliation having two levels (Western religion and Eastern religion) or company type having three levels (Company X, Company Y, Company Z). It then provides a practice example about employee satisfaction rates among morning, afternoon, and evening shifts, identifying shift status as the independent variable with three levels.
The document discusses independent variables and how they relate to research questions. It provides examples of questions with one independent variable, two independent variables, and zero independent variables. An independent variable influences or impacts a dependent variable. Questions are presented about employee satisfaction rates, agent commissions, training proficiency, and cyberbullying incidents to illustrate different numbers of independent variables.

Decolonizing Universal Design for LearningFrederic Fovet
ย
UDL has gained in popularity over the last decade both in the K-12 and the post-secondary sectors. The usefulness of UDL to create inclusive learning experiences for the full array of diverse learners has been well documented in the literature, and there is now increasing scholarship examining the process of integrating UDL strategically across organisations. One concern, however, remains under-reported and under-researched. Much of the scholarship on UDL ironically remains while and Eurocentric. Even if UDL, as a discourse, considers the decolonization of the curriculum, it is abundantly clear that the research and advocacy related to UDL originates almost exclusively from the Global North and from a Euro-Caucasian authorship. It is argued that it is high time for the way UDL has been monopolized by Global North scholars and practitioners to be challenged. Voices discussing and framing UDL, from the Global South and Indigenous communities, must be amplified and showcased in order to rectify this glaring imbalance and contradiction.
This session represents an opportunity for the author to reflect on a volume he has just finished editing entitled Decolonizing UDL and to highlight and share insights into the key innovations, promising practices, and calls for change, originating from the Global South and Indigenous Communities, that have woven the canvas of this book. The session seeks to create a space for critical dialogue, for the challenging of existing power dynamics within the UDL scholarship, and for the emergence of transformative voices from underrepresented communities. The workshop will use the UDL principles scrupulously to engage participants in diverse ways (challenging single story approaches to the narrative that surrounds UDL implementation) , as well as offer multiple means of action and expression for them to gain ownership over the key themes and concerns of the session (by encouraging a broad range of interventions, contributions, and stances).
